There are only listing for monitors folks have given me specs for.  Essentially I need 
resoultion and horz and vertical ranges.

You could try backing down to "fbdev" instead of r128 in /etcX11/Xf86Config-4, and see 
if that does anything for you.  I'm not familar with those messages above, but it 
almost looks like X is asking the display for capabilities and not liking the answer.
